I use tarot and oracle cards as tools for reflection and contemplation. Rather than divining the future, they are a way for me to look more deeply at the "now."

Absolutely Unique

From Songs from the Journey Home Tarot, Flame Resolving (King of Wands); from the Raven Cards, 'Keep your beak shut:'

          The creators of the Songs deck state that the Kings represent wisdom and the ability to see with compassion one's personal strengths and weaknesses. What is the King of Wands strength? He knows how to inspire others, breathing into them passion like the glass blower's breath that helps form the vessels. But the Raven card warns that it would be smart to keep our beak shut and listen to our inner voice (that isn't controlled by the ego). This King of Wands has obviously done just that by not trying to shape people with his personal passion but allowing them to follow their own interests. Each glass piece takes its own unique shape instead of being manufactured with conformity in mind.
Always remember that you are absolutely unique. Just like everyone else.
